Gold Harbour (Spanish: Puerto de Oro) is a small bay 5 miles (8 km) south-southwest of Cape Charlotte, with Bertrab Glacier at its head, along the east end of South Georgia.

The approved name appears to have taken root through common usage by sealers and whalers and is now well established.

[1] Gold Harbour is so called because the sun's rays make the cliffs yellow with their light in the morning and evening.

There is no particular historical or geological reason to give Gold Harbour its mineral name, which was in common use among the early sealers.
